  'Tis a sign of the times.
  When those now mature street trees were planted little more than gas-supply pipes for street lighting ran under the pavement, now all sorts of pipes, cables and trunking utilise the convenience of running off-road under the pavement.
  The idea of the tree-lined street is a thing of the past, for many if not all streets.
  More thought has to go into their planting these days; specimen planting included in traffic calming measures (chicanes etc.) and landscaping of any small grassed plots that dot the street scenes of cities and towns.
  
  The £500 replacement cost should really be factored-in from the get-go and more care and attention paid to the care and protection of each new tree planted.
